it sounds like you’re between a rock and a hard place regarding increasing your medication but I wonder if increasing your Gabapentin by 100mg at a time and if you choose to increase it more do it more slowly than usually recommend and by only 100mg at a time. I was wondering if you could have titrated up to quickly and perhaps that's why you're having these side effects. Of course, your other meds may play a part in the side effects too. I knew of a guy who took 7,000mg.
Good luck,
Jake

Thanks Jake! Increasing my gaba by 100mg at a time for a few days, has been how I've gotten to a mere 300mg, three times daily. So yes, if I absolutely have to, I will do that. I'm always thinking of how I can get off this medication but every time I've titrated down on my dose, my pain had become intolerable. Appreciate your input. Have a lovely day, Sunny Psalm 34:1 "I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth."
